Rebecca sugar is so fuckin cool I wish I could make characters interactions as messy as they do in their doodles for no reason
#the sadie and amethyst art has been chewing through my brain like worms what do you MEAN amethyst had sex with her WHILE COSPLAYING LARS#it's a ship I was sold on before I even saw the art but gOD I would pay actual money to spend 10 minutes in their brain fr#truly iconic I wish I had whatever they (rebecca sugar) has in my brain I can think of the fucked up part but not the tender resolution#their knack for creating messy queer stories is unparalleled

not to be another donations post but you may remember how over the summer we had massive amounts of plumbing problems and other unexpected moving costs? well. after proceeding to work every single hour available to me for six months, take no holidays whatsoever, and budget the hell out of every aspect of my life, I was actually on track to pay everything back and maybe have a little bit of wiggle room by the time summer came around!
and then we got a call from the vet about routine labs saying that if we didn't take Suzy in to an emergency specialty hospital immediately, she would die within in a week, she might die anyways if we took her there, but it was our only chance to have a few more months with her. after an extremely difficult household discussion, we decided that we needed to do as much as we could for her. she's been a beloved member of the family for 18 years. we were not going to abandon her in her hour of need.
with two days at the specialty hospital, the prognosis was better than we could have possibly hoped! the most important thing is she does not have heart problems at all, which means that we can treat her chronic kidney disease with normal IV fluids and with careful treatment she could easily be with us for years to come. the timely intervention also may or may not have saved her from acute kidney failure too, we'll know when we go back to the vet on Wednesday to get her blood checked where her levels have stabilized at.
two days at the specialty hospital means we are also down $3652 , and no longer are on track to pay back everything by July when it comes due unless a couple of uncertain things going forward Go Right, I do not trust everything to Go Right, and we're also still uncertain about what long-term treatment going forward is going to cost.
I still have my ko-fi and my patreon, but honestly, I'm aware that everything is tight for everyone always and there are also a lot of causes that need money right now and in the face of that "hey my family went super out on a limb to try to save our cat and would love some help not falling off" feels kind of shallow. but like. not to sound dumb or like a youtuber or podcaster, but, like. honestly I think the Most Helpful Thing that anyone could do for me right now is take a fucking HelloFresh link that will send you a "free" box for cost-of-shipping ($7ish?) if you Sign Up For An Account that you can then cancel Immediately After The Box Has Shipped and Never Give Them Any More Money Than That and get Six To Ten Meals Out Of It, and for getting someone to "sign up", they will give me a free box too. like. if 13 people are willing to take a link then I don't need to worry about food for the next three months. which would be. HUGE.
so I guess.... dm me if you want a link? otherwise expect to see a lot of promotion of my writing/ patreon as I scramble the hell to try to make this money up
#my life#pet sick for tw#donation post#sort of#yes I am aware that Hello Fresh is problematique / union-busting#they are also currently the only easily accessible source of Free Food that we can actually eat/use#honestly if anyone Wants To Help but doesn't really have the $7 for shipping#I will freaking venmo you back the $7 after I get confirmation of account credit#sending someone $7 for $60 of groceries still means you have Gifted Our Household with net $50 of food#at no cost to yourself#I'm not in As Shitty of a place as last summer bc my mother is also deeply emotionally attached to Suzy#and has agreed to spot us in July for a bit of the money if we pay her back in September#it's just!!!! really FUCKING frustrating!!!!!! we had the money saved!!!! I have spent the last six months KILLING myself to have the money#and now we are back to nearly square 1 except with six months instead of twelve months to make up the difference#so. free food would be much appreciated. as that would also mean that no matter what bullshit the next few months throws at us we at least#know that there will be weekly groceries shipped to us#me @ my job give me overtime hours#legit might destroy me again to work a 240hr month a month or two in a row#but three months of THAT would put me in the clear and they've got free coffee and energy drinks at work#however in lieu of my job giving me the ability to Not Practice The Best Self Care in return for Ungodly Amounts Of Money#'hi friends and mutuals can I interest you in a HelloFresh box' is the best I can do#I swear I will never start a youtube channel or start podcasting tho

💜 Yara
Thank you very much for the prompt, dear Anon!! <3 I hope you enjoy it!
💜 surprise kiss / impulsive kiss
This fucking Marine would not leave her alone.
“And so there I was, surrounded by forty of the nastiest, ugliest pirates in all of the South Blue! They were pointing their weapons at me, creeping closer and yelling curses far too crude to repeat in front of a lady. Bunch of disgusting savages.” The man took a swig of alcohol, pounding his mug against the counter.
Yara’s teeth gritted, staring down at the bottom of her glass as if it had gold in it. If it wasn’t for this ridiculously overpriced beverage-- some kind of pomegranate-flavoured thing that didn’t taste half as good as it looked on the menu board-- she would’ve been out of this shithole bar ages ago.
It was the first day that the Moby Dick had made shore in almost a month, and she had somehow managed to spend far too long of it stuck next to this loser who had just spent the last hour bragging about his impending promotion to Captain of the 453rd Branch or whatever. The shit-eating smirk on his face told her that women were usually fawning over him by this point, and the fact that she wasn’t apparently meant that she needed a little more persuading.
The Marine leaned closer to her, his breath reeking of cheap liquor. “So you know what I did next?”
“I couldn’t care le--”
“I grabbed hold of the steering wheel and swung the ship around! The bastards were so surprised, they didn’t even have time to grab hold of anything, so they all ended up tumbling into the ocean!!” He roared with laughter. “Can you believe that? See, the thing about pirates is that they’re all so hopelessly stupid.”
“Are they now?” Yara said flatly. She was increasingly tempted to push the edge of her dress back, fully revealing the tattoo that adorned her left leg. The only reason why she hadn’t so far was because she was loath to make the man think she was trying to entice him.
“You better believe it, sweetcheeks.” He winked. “And if you want my opinion, Gold Roger was the stupidest one of all. Some ‘King of the Pirates’ he was. I heard there wasn’t even much of a fight to bring the brute down.” Swallowing another gulp of his beverage, he turned to face her. “Now, enough about me. What’s a pretty little gal like you doing all alone in this part of town?”
“Who said she was alone?” a familiar voice spoke from behind them.
Yara’s heart leapt, a small smile creeping onto her lips as she finally glanced up from her half-empty glass.
Ace flashed the both of them one of his usual cocky grins before draping an arm over Yara’s shoulders. “There you are. I was looking everywhere for you.”
The Marine’s expression soured. He shuffled closer to Yara, his tone dropping. “What do you say we get out of here? A man of my rank can get a room at any hotel you fancy.”
Ace tsked. “Whispering isn’t polite, y’know. And there’s a big problem with your plan.”
“Oh? And what’s that?”
A devilish grin spread across the young pirate’s face. He withdrew his arm and reached forwards, fingers brushing gently under Yara’s jaw as he tilted her chin up ever so slightly. “She’s mine.”
Without a moment’s hesitation, he leaned in, his lips colliding with hers. Yara’s eyes widened, surprised by the sudden burst of affection, but they quickly fluttered shut. Ace’s hands had found her waist, pulling her in closer, the taste of pomegranate lingering between them as he deepened the kiss. Finally, he pulled away with a gentle nip to her bottom lip, leaving her breathless. Keeping one arm wrapped firmly around her midsection, he shot the Marine the most satisfied smirk Yara had ever seen.
The man’s lip curled as he slid off the bar stool and took a step towards Ace, trying to look menacing. “Oh, yeah? Who do you think you--” He stopped, his eyes landing on the ASCE tattoo on Ace’s arm. All the colour instantly drained from his face. “W-Wait a minute… I know you… You’re… You’re Fire Fist!!”
Ace tipped his hat at him. “That I am. Pleasure to meet ya.”
“But… that means…” His gaze slowly shifted over to Yara, finally noticing the tattoo poking out from under the hem of her dress. He gulped. “H-Hellcat Yara… It’s-- It’s the Whitebeard Pirates!!”
“And you say we’re the stupid ones,” Yara said disdainfully, watching as the man’s shaking hand reached for the sword strapped to his belt. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you.”
His hand stilled for a second before grabbing the sword and whipping it out. “I’ll… I’ll capture you both! You have a combined bounty of almost one billion Berry, right?! I’ll be rich-- and a hero!!”
Ace and Yara looked at each other, then back at the quivering Marine. Yara let out a sigh, lifting up her glass.
Thunk!!
Before the man could move, she brought it down over his head. He slumped over, his sword clattering to the ground. The rest of the pomegranate-flavoured beverage splashed from the glass, dripping down his blank face.
“Wow.” Ace looked impressed. “That’s one way to solve it.”
Yara shrugged. “I’ve been wanting to do that for over an hour now. Besides, his flirting game sucked anyways.” She placed the glass down on the bar’s counter, sliding it over to the bartender who had apparently seen enough brawls to be completely unbothered by the situation.
Side by side, the two young pirates left the bar, stepping out onto the sunny street.
Ace’s stomach growled as they walked, making him chuckle. “All that excitement and I’m completely famished. Now whaddaya say I take you out for dinner? My treat.”
She laughed. “You say ‘treat’ as if you haven’t skipped the bill on every single date you’ve ever taken me on.”
“That’s true,” he conceded, grinning sheepishly.
Yara looped her arm around his, twining their fingers together. “I would love dinner. And to spend time with you as long as you’ll have me.”
Ace pretended to ponder it. “Well, if that’s the case, then… How about forever?”
Smiling, she leaned down and pressed a kiss against the crossed-out ‘S’ of his tattoo. “Forever sounds nice.”

how it starts vs how it ends (the fucking literal closest i can get to a rivalmance, bioware can you let me be even a little mean to him bc he kinda fucking deserves to be yelled at a bit over some of his comments and its not like he'd be thrilled about an orlesian noblewoman whos fairly anti-violence and a bit useless in a fight as herald)
#oc: annette trevelyan#cullen rutherford#commander cullen#vultures and dragons#not me going back and editing her dialogue to make her a bit more of an uptight classist politician in the beginning#characters can't grow if they start at a good place and she grew up with money and servants and balls and dancing#of course shes going to be shaped and influenced by that#she cares about keeping up appearances and she cares about playing the Game#and he only sees the schemer at first. just another orlesian who wants to complicate matters for their own ends.#and she only sees someone whos chantry aligned and all too happy to use violence to solve a problem#but annette is a lot like vivienne: she participates in the system to claw back some control for herself#she plays politics in orlais because her father won't drag her back and marry her off if she's enriching House Trevelyan#so if shes good at the Game then she can protect herself and her younger siblings#and eventually they start to look past the image theyd created of the other person and find ways to work together#and then also bc of their differences i can play around with how their upbringings might affect them#for example-- she can embroider bc its like. an expected skill. but she can't really mend things. why would she? she can just buy new.#or she can pay someone else to handle mending her clothes.#and i hc cullen does know how to sew bc he's had to maintain his uniforms. he knows how to mend. its not pretty but its reliable.#he hasn't had the flexibility to just buy new clothes all the time so he has to make sure what he has lasts#and just from that little difference like. i can build a whole scene around a torn piece of clothing.#all the little things. they're really fun to play with. they're so different. and they make it work.#also she wants to fuck him so bad it makes her look stupid#ship: took fuck orlesians too literally

Today has been anything but kind. Not only was I down and out from an attack. When D asked where all my money went I had a huge fucking breakdown because at that moment I realized, I had an episode and I spent it all—
Thankfully she was very nice about it and supported me and told me it was okay that she wasn't going to yell or get angry with me, she said she was proud that I acknowledged that it was a mistake... now I can't stop crying because I feel so bad. I feel like I let people down.
#Anyone who uses bipolar as a quirk can go fuck themselves because thus shit sucks. it can ruin you.#this*#i can't even pay any if my bills this month#and why? because I had a high i wasnt aware of and blew all my money. it took till TONIGHT for someone to ask me why that I realized#and broke tf down#not self ship

I am once again begging online shop payment processing companies to allow me to enter a separate name for shipping and separate name for billing!!
It's the same address, I'm just trans and have not legally changed my personal name, but I still prefer to receive mail as my preferred name! Like it's literally my professional name, I do business as my preferred name.
Annoying as fuck, and I don't want to chance my bank rejecting the payment (though I'm sure someone at my bank has put a note to allow it on my account by now, since I've contacted them a couple times before when I realized too late that the billing section didn't let me input another "address/name" section, and they said the payment was fine in those cases.)
Anyway, legal name changes should be free and non-advertised for everyone. Tbh, you should get a free name change every time you file your taxes on time as an incentive for good citizen behaviour. Once I am elected pres-
#i think the one i just used didnt even have a separate billing address option which makes no sense#guess they dont want anyone giving any gifts making the buyer pay twice for shipping like that#maybe it was a fault of the mobile browser but i highly doubt it since many desktop sites look like mobile browsers these days#just so fucking frustrating. what if i lived somewhere where my legal name would out me? (im in the closet rn so doesnt matter)#i dont want to fucking see my legal name. im already forced to see it everywhere else.#i dont wanna ruin my mood on a day when im supposed to be getting a package which should be a happy thing yknow#vent#transphobia#speaking of like i would change my name but i dont want to and cant afford the fucking ridiculous price for it#and i dont wanna advertise it in a newspaper either! shits expensive as fuck on top of the hundreds to file the court paperwork!#i already tried to do it once with money in hand and the receptionist told me that even tho it was for gender identity i could not...#...avoid the newspaper thing unless i also changed my legal gender marker. and i had to back out bc i have reproductive health problems#i dont want a gender marker change to fuck with my getting healthcare#(i did change the gender letter on my ID card later tho which only took a signature on a paper no hassle with anything)#it really really fucking sucks how all these little things add up all the time#especially when im closeted while living w family who wont even use my preferred name#the real kicker is that. both my dad and his dad used preferred names. my dad used his middle name#and i use part of my middle name. yet my dad even in death still gets the dignity of being called his preferred name and i dont#sexism at its finest#reasons why i dont even hint at being trans around my moms side bc i already got bullied by them for wanting to use my middle name#ive literally been asking them to call me my mid name since i was 12. and theyve been acting like im trying to be someone else#its the same middle name on my birth certificate they gave me. i dont understand why they wouldnt want me to use it#but yeah i stay closeted bc i dont wanna deal with the name drama amplified exponentially for gender#prob get kicked out too cuz theyre queerphobic as fuck and i cant work rn and dont have a car#id have to just go full feral and live in the woods with the lizards where i belong#Cori.exe#Post.exe#fuck lol just looked it up and u cant change ur first name if u get married. i cant avoid the fucking fee man. let me be cori#literally why is it cheaper to get married than change ur first name! bullshit! marriage has so much more legal implications#transphobic queerphobic aromanticphobic privacyphobic poorphobic shit ass fucking state ive literally been cori most of my life ffs cmon

Gonna sell off some of my physical TF art! Shoot me a DM if you're interested, first come first serve at full price & best offer if no one's interested at full price after a couple days :D
Shipping not included, all prices in USD. Will update availability in replies when sold.
1. Motormaster "target locked" watercolor. It's on stiff cardstock, 10.5"x6.75" in (the exact size of a normal comic-book backing board, because that's what it is.) It has a light blue shimmer that's easier to see in person. Asking $35. (Second pic shows shimmer)
2. SOLD: Wildrider "Found You" marker art . Gold sections were meant to be metallic but that effect doesn't really work well. 9"x12" in. Edges are a little messed up because I tried to make Wildrider "pop" and it didn't work so well either. Asking $25.
3. Humanformer "Wild Ride" watercolor. Also 9"x12" in. Red is a little paler in person and blues a little darker. Has a pencil sketch of Bulkhead on the back, if that sweetens the pot any. Also asking $25.
#bitegore art#go to oozeandgoo-art for my new work#red rambles#i'll accept whatever the best offer is that doesn't cost ME money. if you want to pay $5 overall but shipping is gonna cost me $15 i cant#do that. but if no one is interested after like a week and your offer is like $1+shipping then whatever that's still more money than i had#may as well shoot your shot if you're interested + on a tight budget

Don't know that one. What's it about? What genre? Is it fun?
#I'm not gonna pay for international shipping for a book blindly again#Last time I bought a book based on someone praising how gay it was and how good it's representation was#It turned out the main couple had been a thing briefly in the past but wasn't in the book's present#And while it had many flashbacks to the past timeline it was less about seeing them be together and more like#Character A saying something and the story stopped happening so character B could explain the thing at character A#Like 'oh you're experiencing periods. This is what that means what causes it and how to treat the symptoms.'#And 'oh you're bisexual. This is the dictionary definition of the word this is the etymology of the word'#Like one of the characters was alledgedly street smart thief but for some reason she had never heard of periods before#I was told they had great chemistry but all I got shown was a person shaped dictionary and a blank wall that got things explained to#I was clearly not the target audience for that one (I know what bisexual means! Stop lecturing like I'm an idiot and let me see the story!)#Though at least that book treated animals like actual animals and knew how logistics worked#Unlike this OTHER book I once bought on internet recommendation#That had me continuously go 'that's not how falcons work. That's not how horses work. That's not how weather works.#'that's not how winter works. Have you ever even seen snow? For fuck's sake stop rubbing frostbites! You're gonna cause tissue damage!'#......#Sorry did not mean to tag a wall of text#I've just spent too much money on books I bought on anonymous recommendation and ended up not having good time

sometimes learning maritime history is just sitting there thinking like okay i get that all my why would you not Xs is money like its just who cares about safety when money BUT i feel like if all of you would agree on shipping lanes for lake fucking huron, youd probably save money on ship collisions, what do you mean these lanes didnt apply to canadian ships????
#kai rambles#shipposting#im just#like#safety regulations were just not a thing when it came to the early version of the modern shipping industry#i know that#safety regulations cost money so just dont have any#but like thats stupid for several reasons#like surely you would save money if less of your ships would like you know sink#or hit another ship#because that involves potentially having to pay out for that ships repairs#also like#you do have to pay some insurance to the families and survivors#granted thats not much considering in 1959 us steel was able to blame the sinking of the carl d bradley on GOD#so they didnt have to pay enough#but also like#the big pushes for safety regulations in maritime history is like not surprising as to when or why they happen#but its frustrating all the same#like after the titanic sank there was a big push to make sure all ships had enough lifeboats for all passengers when thats not really what#lifeboats were/are for? in a lot of the successful rescue efforts lifeboats were there to ferry passengers to another ship or shore#and then go back to the sinking ship to get more passengers#theres also a lot of times where you just cant release lifeboats full of passengers because they will not survive#modern lifeboats are more suited for survival in big bodies or water but older ones were death traps#and iirc lifeboats have killed more than theyve saved?#a lot of captains at the time were like this law change is dumb and is going to cause problems in regards to ships ability to float#because like extra weight and also this is probably not gonna help anyone but that legislation was pushed straight through#but investigating the kind of steel the carl d was made of and how it was that material that made the ship break in half?#fuck you weve decided its gods fault
